Okay dokay... I appreciate the people who offered advice but I think everybody else on here needs to calm done and tone down on the bitchy. I am neither impressed nor intimidated by your "insider" information. I was simply asking a harmless question on KKG. I am not looking to force my way into it or that intensly interested. You don't need to look into it that deeply or be so guarded and upset. I thought the idea of a forum was asking questions. I am coming to the conclusion that maybe sororities are not that nuturing and supportive and that you are all a bit obsessed with yourselves. I was figuring since you all preach "sisterhood", that you would be helpful. I am going to return to reality now. So long.

Says the girl who came here looking to figure out what Kappa is looking for in members. But we're obsessed.

It's the classic "OMG I wanna be in a sorority soooo bad but when the people on the interwebz don't tell me what I wanna know I'm gonna tell them them they're sooo mean."

I love it.

The Kappa ladies in this thread have been nothing but helpful (I have not seen one bitchy response in this thread). And they obviously have something you want.

Lose the attitude.

kthx.

Firstly, I did not mean that lecture to be towards the people who offered help. I do appreciate the links and such.
Secondly, I do not want to be in a sorority "soooo bad." I think if I did I would have rushed no matter what this year. Being in a sorority was never a goal of mine and it is very likely that it does not fit my personality. That doesn't mean I can't explore my options.
I am not asking for tips on how to get in. I either fit or I don't fit. What I do want to know is how the kappas are at IU. I would like to know more about them not what they look for in girls. I think people are flattering themselves a little too much to think I am that coo-coo over kappa. I am not in a frenzy to get in, I am not obsessed to get in, I am not awed by them; I am interested in them, or rather was. GET OVER YOURSELF! It was a question. Not a plea written in blood to get into Kappa. I really should not have bothered explaining myself but I think some of the girls on here need to come back to earth. I didn't profess love with them so to say I did makes you look very full of yourself. When I say "you", I mean the ppl this pertains to. I challenge anybody to find a quote where it was supposedly apparent that I am "dying to get in" or that I want to be in a sorority "sooo bad". This forum seems like a community that is used to whiny girls who ask how to get into sororities too often and get upset by newbies who they assume are acting in that manner.

Again.

You came HERE.

We are not the people who need over ourselves.

And lol @ you saying you're no longer interested in KKG or sorority membership as if someone is going to say "oohhhh nooooo, please be interested in us again."

That's pretty obvious

Alright lady, your just never going to be happy and that is fine. If you are so adverse to me then quit responding. because right now "you came here" to my post repeatedly. If my post offends you so much then quit disecting my words. I am aware of what I wrote. I was conscious when I typed it.


P.S.
i love how you keep putting quotes that I am supposedly thinking. Like the I want to be in a sorority "sooo bad" and the "oohhh nooooo, please be interested in us again." because last time I checked, that is not what was going through the brain, but thanks for that touch. It added pizzaz.

Sorry you didn't get the answer you want to hear. Classic response.

Oh...I thought you said you were leaving...? And by you saying earlier that it's not like you were desperate to get into a sorority and then itching to get in to Kappa or Chi Omega, that kind of contradicts it. If you really don't care, why do you have such a severe preference?

Thank you for pointing that out because I was not planning on bringing that up. Don't believe me you can also check out greekrank, its not a pretty picture at all. They are ranked the worst right now. I was hoping to hear otherwise from you girls but so far it looks like you are holding up the the reputation of being bitches. yeah, ouch.
Even if we had patted you on the head and gave you a gold star for your attitude and praised you for it, not all Kappas are the same. Each girl is different, and each campus is different.
Also, you say you're aware that it's biased info but you still have the idea that rumors are true, why would you want to be a part of Kappa so badly then? (Enough to ask about the Kappa ways).

And an online website? That doesn't really pertain to how the dynamic of a sisterhood. IU is very competitive in Greek life and I have no doubt people rate down other chapters, sad as it is. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but as a competitive school, IU cuts many freshmen. Sophomores face even harsher cuts at any competitive Greek school.

And if we were holding up the reputation of being bitches, I'm sure you'll get an automatic bid. However, we aren't. We're just telling you that it's foolish to go in as a sophomore and expect/hope for two chapters.

I advise you to think before you go on the Internet. It's not as anonymous as you'd like to think.

PS. Don't tell us to get over ourselves. It's taken pretty badly when someone appears to only want one or two chapters at a competitive school. If anyone needs to get over themselves, it's you.

I am sorry for having interests or expectations. I won't do that from now on. not. i guess that makes me full of myself for liking two chapters. also i never said the rumors were true nor that i believed them, that doesn't mean its not a possibility.

Well, the most cuts I've heard of happen to those who don't keep an open mind. As a sophomore, you've already got that against you. You should go through with an open mind and be happy where you get invites back to. The reason I'm saying it makes you conceited is because since you're a soph, you have that against you (like I said earlier in this very post). You are likely to be cut from more sororities than freshman. You have that against you. If you go in with the entitled attitude, it's likely that you'll eliminate any chance at all.

Do you believe everything you hear?

It's just that it's kind of obvious you have a preference for Kappa going into recruitment (as a soph, I might add), when a large percentage of people who go through Indiana recruitment go bidless. I think it's important to not set yourself up for disappointment and try to learn more about ALL the groups at IU.

I hope this isn't part of the "incorrect advice" that everyone is so upset about lately, but I'm pretty sure I'm correct in saying that Indiana has a competitive recruitment.
